Hello @barbaraj26 if when you immediately start a new Episode Race everyone but you has finished and you are last then I am sorry to say you are suffering from an issue that can't be fixed.

All you can do is carry on playing without your Episode Race, or start a new game and hope that you receive the Episode Race in your new game

Hello @barbaraj26 and welcome to the community!

I cannot see your screenshot, so could you please repost by using the landscape symbol next to the smilie face at the bottom of the comment box. If you are in fifth place while another player has already won the race there is a problem with your game.  This phenomenon was previously reported by some other players and unfortunately I have not yet heard of anyone for whom there was a fix to this.

Have you ever heard if this got fixed for anyone or is there anything this player can do to get the episode race back to work @PummyRaj ?
